WAKE UP EARLY.

I am sure you have seen my Insta stories flood by morning walks and early rising - simple, I want to retrain my brain to be up bright and early. Why? I get more shit done when I'm up early. I workout, I get breakfast in, and by 9am I have already replied to all old emails and planned my day.

The most successful entrepreneurs and CEO's does it. Why? Must of the time, early mornings are the only time you feel fresh and motivate. Just think about it, how do you feel after a long day of work? I'm sure you will must likely to lay in the couch to watch Netflix, not to be the must productive human.

Micro changes like walking up an hour early, will help you be more efficient and will give you so much more time to crush your goals. Read this blog on How to be a morning person. And this other tips from a local trainer.

REMOVE "SHOULD" "COULD¨ "I'M GONNA TRY¨OUT OF YOUR VOCABULARY

If every time you think "I should wake up early" you won't feel motivate at all. Just think about it. Why are you going to do something you should be doing, it doesn't sound exciting right? or "I'm going to try" to eat healthy. BUT ARE YOU? Yeah, I don't think so. It sounds like a chore, and boring to me.

Instead say:

"I AM DOING"__________

Make yourself accountable and get things done. You will feel more motivated but you will also put it out in the universe. It sounds loco, but it damn works.

Make yourself proud, and don't quit on yourself, like you wouldn't quit on others.

SURROUND YOURSELF WITH LIKE MINDED PEOPLE AND REMOVE TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS (even online ones)

You will eventually become a product of the people who surround you; that’s something I learned the hard way.

Make sure the people you hang out the most, are people that not only have a vision similar to you but they also support you and uplift you. The least you want is hang out with someone that is always complaining, and bringing the energy down, or worst, doubting you!

If you want to become successful, surround yourself with people who share your goals or who have already achieved them. As a tip, look for those who you aspire to be, or that you admire, always someone "above" you in a way. They can help you grow, teach you and also be someone that has through the same struggles, so it is easy to talk to.

Surround yourself with the innovators, the thinkers and the listeners; the individuals who want to set a change and leave a footprint in their life and yours, the ones who are willing to help others before helping themselves. Listen to their stories — you’ll probably learn a thing or two.

STAY ACTIVE AND EAT HEALTHY

Every single successful CEO or entrepreneur says the same thing. STAY HEALTHY AND ACTIVE. You are the reflection of what you eat and drink. And although eating greens might not sounds exciting at all, you can make healthy eating sexy and fun. This and this recipe, are some of my favorite ones.

When you excercise and eat healthy you feel great, confident and ready to crush life, and the opposite when you don't do it regularly. I'm all about listening to our bodies, and not over do it, or become obsessed with healthy eating and working out, that's why I always recommend to add healthy habits into YOUR lifestyle, instead of trying to be someone else.

Find what is that workout/sport/program that you love, and do it regularly, add some more veggies into your smoothies and your meals, you will notice the difference right away.

Remember, this are habits for life, not for the summer!

SEXY FINANCES

I know, we all cringe when we open our bank account app after a fun weekend, or a shopping spree. Between rent, bills, fitness classes, weddings, baby showers, school and going out, we might feel like we have so little left.

I am the first one to play guilty at this, I have always been really bad with money. Always spending more than what I earned. Until the past couple years, I had really made the effort to cut on stupid expenses, and save.

Sophia Amorouso, talks about this at the end of her book Girl Boss, and even jokes about that money looks better in your bank that in your feet.

Being able to save will give you the confidence to do things you really want to do, a vacation, a nice dinner every month, or even quitting your job and start your own business. And to be honest, we never know when things are gonna get bad, and you want to have a bit of cushion for those emergencies.

It will be hard but look at your current expenses vs income, what can you cut completely out, what can you reduce or make yourself instead.

USE A CALENDAR

But really use it!

There are so many ways to stay organize, I love my calendar app and my bullet journal, but by really using it and staying in track with everything I'm doing it, it gives a sense of ownership. I can see (literally) what I've accomplished in the past, what are my goals and what are those things I need to do.

By staying organize you will feel more confident and in control of your life, you will never skip meetings, birthdays and you will stay on track with your side hustle (if you have one).

Take control of your life, and start doing now what YOU really want to do!
